In the event that your oxide contains 60% metal than it has 40% oxygen. 
Taking a gander at 100 gram of the oxide: 40 gram oxygen which is 40/16 = 2.5 mole O 
Oxide implies the O has taken in 2 electrons, so add up to admission 5 mole electrons 
These more likely than not originated from the 60 gram metal. 
So 60 gram metal gave 5 mole electrons, and as indicated by the definition the identical weight will be 60/5 = 12
